Someone please talk me out of this nonsense...

My husband has a Juke fwd. I can honestly say that it is a blast to drive, and surprisingly nimble for such a heavy subcompact. We do most errands and out-of-town trips in it. But... at least in fwd trim, it could never replace a Z.

I haven't seen a single awd Juke in a 50 mile radius, but on paper the torque vectoring system might fix my biggest complaint; any amount of sharp turn-in under acceleration breaks traction on the inside wheel. He's never chirped a tire in the damn thing, but every single time I've driven it, I slip a wheel at least once. In my defense, I drive a Z on a daily basis

It is a fun car, though. The leather seats are comfortable and we average over 25mpg since we bought it, even when I drive (averaging 19-20 per tank in the Z). Coming from a 6mt, I even like the CVT. It does a great job keeping the RPMs where I want them, and it works around the turbo lag brilliantly 90% of the time.
